Felons’ chattels and English living standards in the later fourteenth and fifteenth centuries
Abstract The later fourteenth and fifteenth centuries have long occupied an intriguing and contested place in discussions of England's long‐run economic development. One key issue around which debate has coalesced is the living standards of the population as a whole and of different groups within it. We contribute to this debate by bringing forward new

Em pomares de macieira, o dano de granizo pode ser evitado através da cobertura das plantas com telas. Todavia, as telas alteram a intensidade e a qualidade da luz solar e, assim, podem comprometer o rendimento e a qualidade dos frutos.

Reducing russeting of organically grown Elstar to increase quality [PDF]
Sales organisations indicated that opportunities for organic apples sales can increase when quality increases, in particular reducing the amount of russeting. The use of copper is probably the most important factor for russeting.

Threatened cockatoo adapts foraging strategy to survive habitat loss from fire
Fire regimes are changing across the globe as a result of human‐induced climate change. For granivorous bird species, changes in fire regimes can affect seed availability and the persistence of populations. We investigated the foraging behaviour of Glossy Black Cockatoos Calyptorhynchus lathami halmaturinus, a resource specialist, following large‐scale

REPCO contribution to the development of products for apple scab control [PDF]
Natural compounds were sprayed according the RimPro scab warning system from start of bud break until the mid of June. Scab incidence was measured on the leaves and the fruit. Phytotoxicitiy and russet-ing was assessed. The natural compounds were sprayed

De novo stolon organogenesis in potato leaf callus elicited by Agrobacterium tumefaciens stimulus
Agrobacterium tumefaciens triggers stolon regeneration from potato leaf callus independent of T‐DNA insertion, suggesting a strategy to reprogram callus identity and expand the potential of tissue regeneration. ABSTRACT Plant cells can undergo cellular reprogramming, enabling pluripotent callus formation from excised leaves.

Evaluation of grapefruit seed extract as natural fungicide to control apple scab in organic apple growing [PDF]
C-pro, an experimental fungicide based on grapefruit seed extract was compared to copper oxychloride for the control of apple scab in a field trial. Efficacy and possible phytotoxic effects where accessed.

The tomato mars1/rough mutant displays enhanced root regeneration and rough fruits due to ectopic cell proliferation. The causal gene encodes a lysine‐specific histone demethylase that normally maintains gene silencing. Its loss alters histone methylation, upregulating several genes, including those B‐type cyclins involved in tissue‐specific cellular ...

Quantifying the response of goldrush potato to nitrogen on sandy soil
Abstract Optimizing nitrogen (N) application rate is essential for effective N management and requires an understanding of crop growth dynamics, nutrient partitioning, cultivar traits, and soil characteristics. The effects of seven in‐season N rates (37–391 kg N ha−1) on dry matter (DM) and N accumulation and partitioning at early‐ and late‐growth ...

Tree shading: an efficient method to control alternate bearing? [PDF]
Conventional and integrated fruit growers, but not organic producers, have the possibility to use thinning agents (e.g. benzyl adenine), which allow crop regulation at a relatively late stage (10-16 mm fruit size).
